If you are looking for a compact yet powerful micro-copter you might be interested in the new AirDroids Pocket Drone which is launched a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign this week to raise enough capital to make the jump from concept into production.

The new AirDroids Pocket Drone micro-copter is small enough to be portable yet powerful enough to carry a high quality action camera up into the skies. Check out the video after the jump to learn more about this powerful pocket drone from its creators.

“The Pocket Drone is the personal flying robot that enables anyone to capture amazing video and photos from the sky. The year 2014 is going to be the “Year of the Drone.” Personal and professional photography is literally beginning to take off. Everybody can already take great looking photos and videos with their camera phones and share them online, but they have been limited to what could seen from the ground.

We saw a lot of kits out there that were powerful and flexible, but took a long time to put together, tune, and make work correctly. There were off the shelf products that worked out of the box, but were limited in their functionality. And there wasn’t anything out there that was both powerful and convenient to carry. So we decided to create something that combined the best of everything we had seen, but was more elegant and accessible.

That’s how we came up with The Pocket Drone, the world’s smallest heavy lift micro-copter. It’s as powerful as an open source kit, works out of the box with everything you need like an off the shelf product, and is easy to take with you wherever you go, without having to bring along an extra case or bag just for your drone. We’ve gone through dozens of iterations to create the perfect drone product that can be used by everyone.”
